Who’s Invited? Everyone and their cousin! Whether you’re just starting out or you’ve been in the clay for ages.
Begin with our molds to shape that extra large platter you’ve been dreaming about, without breaking a sweat. Once your platter‘s shaped, then you can get to the decorations. Paint a narrative scene, a whimsical design, or an ode to turkeys fashion sense with our vibrant underglazes.
We all are familiar with the classic turkey platter, but this class also works for vegetarians. What about a fancy stuffed acorn squash platter? Or a show-stopping vegetarian Wellington for our veggie pals? Picture a plate showcasing a glistening portobello mushroom steak, or vibrant spinach and ricotta stuffed shells. Or a well coiffed Chinese takeout?
These festive feats can be as classy or as wild as you want. If you’re dreaming of a chic, minimalist design – go for it. Or maybe you’re in the mood for something whimsical and a little bit nuts just like your aunt? Perfect. What’s the holiday season without a touch of the ridiculous and personal? These platters are a canvas for your holiday spirit – make it unforgettable.
All our clay and glazes are dishwasher and microwave safe..
So, who wants to create the family’s annual painted platter?
